About Kathin and PhaPa:

“Kathin” is a Buddhist festival which comes at the end of Vassa, the three-month rainy season retreat for Theravada Buddhists. The season during which a monastery may hold a 'Kathin' festival is one month long, beginning after the full moon of the eleventh month in the lunar calendar (usually in October). It is a time of giving, for the laity to express gratitude to monks. Lay Buddhists bring donation to temples, especially new robes for the monks.

“PhaPa” (frequent: PhaPa Samakki) is a kind of Kathin that has no a specific date to do unlike Kathin. People can do PhaPa in every season of a year. Doing PhaPa is mainly for giving new robes for monks and making a donation for the temples.

Doing Kathin and doing PhaPa can support Buddhism. The merit of doing Kathin and doing PhaPa will bring the doer auspiciousness and prosperity. People believe when Kathin or PhaPa doer dies, he or she will go to the heaven and when they are born, they will be in the rich & good family, good-looking and a beloved person of people as well as have a lot of money and properties.
